Therapy<br />
Diagnostics<br />
<strong>TNI</strong> ® is a worlwide new method for breathing support. It doesn`t work with positive pressure respiration, it is<br />
a high-flow breathing therapy. <strong>TNI</strong> ® conducts a warm, moistened flow of room air of maximum 20 liters per minute<br />
to the patient over a special, particularly quiet applicator (nasal applicator) into the nose. Not covered by a<br />
mask as with the CPAP therapy, the nose remains open. Simple exhaling is ensured. The open system without<br />
mask or closed nasal prongs is thus an extremely comfortable alternative to CPAP and other methods for treating<br />
sleep-related breathing disorders.<br />
<strong>TNI</strong> ® 20<br />
In home care the therapy device <strong>TNI</strong> ® 20 is used to treat sleep-related breathing disorders. At patients with a comparable<br />
CPAP pressure up to 8 mBar the method shows a good effectiveness 1 . In addition, <strong>TNI</strong> ® has already been<br />
used successfully as substitute therapy for patients with more severe symptom complexes who do not tolerate<br />
CPAP.<br />
